Burj Khalifa is around 829.8 meters tall. Well, quite an overwhelming structure it is, isn’t it? It is almost thrice as tall as the Eiffel Tower of France. Wow! So, this building can take you really high. The Burj Khalifa, developed by Emaar Properties PJSC in Dubai, is the tallest building in the world and has been named a “Global Icon” by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, an honour given to tall buildings only once every ten or fifteen years. It has been called a “Vertical City” and “A Living Wonder.”
